Distance Day. Delighted to report that from the combination of the taking part fee, your fundraising/sponsorship and some rounding up from the Trust, we managed to raise a fantastic £1,000. This will be split equally and sent to two worthy charities - Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie. Many thanks for your support and well done again to all the swimmers that took part 👍💪

Wow! Distance Day was a great success. Close to 70 swimmers took part gaining their certificates. We had some major achievements - yellows up to 60 lengths! As a charity fundraiser, thank you to everyone involved as several hundreds of pounds raised for cancer charities...we will let you know the total soon

“I do breastroke, I do freestyle, I do survival backstroke".

What an inspirational young person. Swimming 4k then a 2k run that saved his Mum and family.

Swimming is a life skill. That's what our lessons are primarily all about.

Age 4.5 to adult lessons available in small groups led by our expert teachers. As a charity we have provided this service to the community for over 40 years, teaching thousands.

Interested? Give us a shout [email protected]

A teenager praised for his “superhuman” hero effort after swimming 4km through shark-frequented waters to save his family, who were swept out to sea, has described the moment he collapsed on the beach only to get back up to sprint to a phone.
